"Grace, I give you the boy. Give me back the man."
Lee Marvin as Ben Rumson in "Paint Your Wagon" 1969

I was in Ruby Garrett's whore house in Butte, Montana in 1964. Seriously, I was. Ruby would have been in prison for killing her husband then, (shot him 5 times in a poker game) but the place was still operating in her absence. As a young 20 year old assistant bank examiner, I wound-up there one evening with two of my fellow employees, $15 in hand, and scared to death. One of my friends rang the doorbell and an old woman let the three of us in, and we were escorted to a waiting room off to the right. I remember it was much like what you'd find in a doctor or dentist office, nice chairs, a coffee table, end tables, lamps, even had a few magazines, but who had time to read, and I was starting to wonder what the heck I was doing there. Being Young and Dumb in Montana

Science and technology expert Dan Riskin addressed the potential repercussions of a space bathroom or flatulence catastrophe, particularly in light of the fact that Artemis II's ''lunar loo'' temporarily stopped working on the voyage. Solid organic waste is stored and returned to Earth while liquid waste is released into space. ''The gases that come out when you pass gas are flammable,'' he said. ''You've got methane and hydrogen, like the Hindenburg'' that caught fire and was destroyed in 1937.Science and technology expert Dan Riskin addressed the potential repercussions of a space bathroom or flatulence catastrophe, particularly in light of the fact that Artemis II's ''lunar loo'' temporarily stopped working on the voyage.

During World War II, Fort Hunt, Virginia, served as a top-secret U.S. military intelligence installation known as P.O. Box 1142. From 1942 to 1946, it operated as a clandestine interrogation center for high-value German captives, scientists, and U-boat crew members. The site, which handled over 3,400 prisoners, was instrumental in gathering intelligence without using torture, often relying on psychological tactics, and treating the captives humanly.

From our collection of thousands of articles.It turns out that zooming in on an ant's face is an absolute nightmare. A close-up photograph of an ant was sent in as a submission to the 48th annual Nikon Small World Photomicrography Competition - and the results are freaky.
